A gatorade bottle and a diet coke can

The title has nothing to do with the post. It's just a couple of things sitting on my desk. Creativity has flown out the window. OUT THE WINDOW, I TELL YOU!

My students won't quit whining about Scarlet Letter. What's an English teacher to do?

I lost my keys this morning and spent 20 minutes looking for them, thus being 20 minutes late.

I eventually found my spare keys which have been lost for the last 5 months, but my normal keys are still lost. So can I put that in the win category?

Today I'm feeling especially vulnerable and sensitive as some family of mine goes through a tough time. I guess in the end we gotta cling to family and friends because nothing else really matters.

The counselors are in my English class today to help students set up their schedules. Needless to say, none of them are too focused on Scarlet Letter. What is it about choosing classes for next year that gets them so flipping excited?

I'm in a total blogging rut right now. Feeling like everything I say is boring/not creative/ not unique/ whining. What do you do when you are in a blogging rut?

I usually get someone else to take over. Which is what I'm doing today. I've got some little ladies to introduce you to and they've got the personality and sass that I am lacking today. Take it away girls!
